abstract
In this paper, we introduce Bar-Natan homology for null homologous links in \mathbb{RP}^3 over the field of two elements. It is a deformation of the Khovanov homology in \mathbb{RP}^3 defined by Asaeda, Przytycki and Sikora. We also define an s-invariant from this deformation using the same recipe as for links in S^3, and prove some genus bound using it. The key ingredient is the notion of twisted orientation for null homologous links and cobordisms in \mathbb{RP}^3.

Link in $\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^3$ and the Topological Vertex
First topological-vertex computations of colored unknot and Hopf link invariants in RP^3 yield power series with positive integer q-expansions, conjecturally the Poincare series of a new link homology.
